FOOTGOLF
FootGolf is an emerging sport encouraging the crossover from football to golf, but quicker, more accessible and with less expensive equipment. It is a good way of getting kids interested in football, interested in golf.
FootGolf is played using the principles of golf – tee, fairway, green – but with a much larger ‘cup’ and using a football instead of a golf ball. The aim is to kick the football from the tee, down the fairway and into the hole in as few shots as possible. It is good fun and something all the family can enjoy from tots to grandparents.
Our course features nine par 3 and par 4 holes giving a total par for the course of 33. The course is totally separate from the golf course, so can be played concurrently alongside regular course golfers.
Please book FootGolf by calling Rception on 01246 813111.

Summer – 9am to 7pm (last footballs 6:30pm)

Player/Group Terms & Conditions
We hope you enjoy your time with us – golf courses and driving ranges can be dangerous environments, especially for those who aren’t used to being in a golfing environment, therefore for your safety and enjoyment, please make sure everyone is aware of the following:
– Children must be supervised and behave appropriately at all times – this is a golf club and can be a dangerous environment
– The range bays, gravel and range itself are out of bounds if you are playing FootGolf – please do not allow anyone to go into the range bays or step out onto the gravel, ESPECIALLY if there are customers hitting range balls
– The golf balls and equipment located just outside Reception/Coffee Shop is for the use of paying users only and not for playing with. Driving range and FootGolf groups will be issued with any necessary equipment by the Receptionist
– Driving range groups – one person per bay unless you have been told otherwise (larger groups may have to share bays). DO NOT stay in or step into the bay if it’s not your turn. DO NOT step into someone else’s bay at any time. DO NOT step out onto the gravel at any time. Swinging golf clubs can move fast and if they hit you – it hurts!
– Driving range supervision – under 12’s : one adult per child. Over 12’s : one adult per 4 children
– Please keep off the practice putting green with footballs
– Please keep footballs under close control when not on the FootGolf course

– FootGolf – any balls landing in the revine should be retrieved by adults where possible.
